Just did not want to name the product which prompted me to finally go at

OK, no 5.5 then.
Anyway, I have built a version of the patch (using unsigned long instead
of signed long as the original did) against old php 5.3.8 and currently
a test is running with a 4.7 GiB DVD Image. If it works well, I will
submit the patch and attach it to the bug record.

Thank you for your response.
